Thank you again for the reply TPS, the flickering is gone but both lines display the same line.

I've searched around for ways of counting the number of lines in a text file and need to experiment reading the last and second last lines into memory so it can be displayed.

Getting a bit late so will continue tomorrow.

Your solution looks less cumbersome, unfortunately my knowledge of VBA is very limited for me to change your script to it work.

Thank you again for your help.

Thank you for a quick reply, 
We got it working, but it reads through the file and flickers everything on the screen until it gets to the last line. We'll see if we can get it to just display the last 2 lines.

We'll post back with results sometime next week.

Screen designer tips and tutorials / 2 lines of "VB" message to show

« on: June 17, 2019, 01:27:17 AM »

We are designing a screenset for a customer and would like to show more than 1 line of VB messages from LastErrors.txt file.
Just wondering if it's possible and how do we change the format of the Error label for it to display 2 lines of messages.

Thank you in advance.
